For some reason that number is now +525...:shrug:.. I may just wait to see where it settles at before the race.If it goes to 6-1 then I`m in heavy!!
Ever since this car unloaded here its been in a league of its own..its owns every practice and every 5-10 lap average speed. After 15 laps this car seems to settle down and just a few can run the same lap times..Jimmy Johnson,Dale Jr and Denny Hamlin. But by the time 15 laps are run Kurt will probably have a 4 to 5 second lead..that how fast this thing is. I`m just amazed how much speed vrs other drivers he has.
Let`s nail this thing Shiner..:0008
Sounds like a plan Lugs!!! Looking forward to it.
Adding a couple others....
.5U - Jr. +1750
.5U - Hamlin +1900
.25U - McMurray +6600
.25U - Menard +12500
Like the value on Jr. and Hamlin.
More of flyers on McMurray and Menard. McMurray liked his car on the long run which could be big. Menard typically does well on courses like this and his car seems to be pretty good. May take a fuel strategy play from one of these two but you never know! Will likely take these two in match ups as well.

I can't do anything with Harvick, Kurt or Jimmy. All less than 4-1 and one will win. I am going to take some long shots today instead and focus on hoops.
To win:
Keselowski 8-1
Newman 40-1
Truex Jr 30-1
Smoke 60-1
Good luck :toast:

Fantasy NASCAR Preview: Auto Club 400
http://fantasy.usatoday.com/2015/03...-sleepers-busts-kevin-harvick-brad-keselowski
The Sprint Cup Series will wrap up its early-season West Coast swing this weekend with a trip to Auto Club Speedway in Fontana, Calif.
The D-shaped oval is one of two tracks on the schedule that features a 2.0-mile layout, and while ACS has slightly less banking than its sister track, Michigan International Speedway, it still features a wide, multi-grooved racing surface that allows drivers to run down near the apron, up by the wall and everywhere in between. The wide track surface also leads to long green-flag runs, and races at ACS can often come down to fuel mileage strategy.
Stud of the Week
Kevin Harvick
He followed up his victory at Las Vegas with a win at Phoenix last weekend, and Harvick has now joined Richard Petty and David Pearson as the only drivers in series history to finish either first or second in seven consecutive races. Perhaps more importantly, he has also scored more points than any other driver at two-mile tracks over the past three seasons.
Start ?em
Carl Edwards
Edwards has been a model of consistency at Auto Club Speedway, and in 17 starts at the track, he has amassed 14 top-10 finishes, including four in a row. He has also finished sixth or better at ACS 12 times so he offers plenty of upside to go along with his reliability.
Brian Vickers
Auto Club Speedway has been one of Vickers? best tracks in recent years. Since 2007, he has finished 12th or better in eight of his nine starts at ACS, and he has finished eighth and seventh in his last two starts. Vickers also owns a top 15 driver rating at the track.
Kurt Busch
He returned from his suspension in a big way last weekend, logging a top-five finish at Phoenix in his first start of the year. Busch should continue to make up for lost time Sunday at Auto Club Speedway, where he has notched six top-10s in his last eight starts, including back-to-back top-five finishes.
Martin Truex Jr.
While his record at Auto Club Speedway isn?t overly impressive, Truex is off to the best start of his career, and he and his Furniture Row Racing team appear to have a great feel for the new rules package being used in 2015. He has an average finish of 5.8 through four races and hasn?t finished worse than eighth. Stick with the hot hand this weekend.
Park ?em
Brad Keselowski
Keselowski has established himself as one of the best drivers in the series, but Auto Club Speedway remains a trouble spot. He has a 23.3 average finish in six starts at the track, and he is still looking for his first top-15 finish.
Denny Hamlin
He has had some strong cars at Auto Club Speedway, but Hamlin never seems to be able to avoid trouble here. He has managed just one top-10 in his last six starts at the track, and he has finished 25th or worse four times during the same stretch. For his career, Hamlin has just a single top-five finish in 13 starts at ACS.

Tough break on that yellow. Even thought Menard might have a shot in the end there.
On the weekend:
To win: -5U
Matchups: +3.5U
Back at it next week. Short track racing at Martinsville!

Exactly!! How many late race phantom flags are they going to throw until no one is there to see it?
They took this race from Kurt Busch.
